Second Hand Cat
Author unknown
Give us a chance who are not brand new
Who would love a home with someone like you
We may have been around a bit
Received many a blow and many a kick
Starved and neglected most of our days
Yet we are forgiving anyways
But now's our chance to start anew
A home with love that we never knew
So before a kitten you're tempted to pick
Give us a look, but not too quick
Look at the character in our face
And our bodies, still full of grace
Just think of us, day after day
Watching people look and walk away
But say the word 'yes' and we will know
Our bags are packed and we're ready to go
